I'm pleased with the "Table discussion until mid 2015" outcome :-). It might make sense at some point to have a "super secure Servo" build where you plug in a JS interpreter and simple GC written in Rust, but I can't see a viable general-purpose browser without a complex multitier JIT. In the long term, we should be able to have that plus security by translating SM into Rust and introducing some kind of TAL/PCC safety checking of generated code, maybe with some offline theorem proving for critical bits like GC. The state of the art in this area is advancing reasonably quickly. But I can't see any "rewrite the JS engine" project making sense for Servo even in the medium term unless the landscape changes dramatically (e.g. massive quantities of new resources fall from the sky).
